33 Marigold is a medicinal herb in Crimson Desert recognized by its bright orange flowers that stand out in open meadows. The roots, sap, and blossoms all contain a natural pest repellent, and herbalists across Pywel use the plant extensively in alchemy. Marigold belongs to the Mushrooms and Herbs category of gatherables and serves a dual purpose: it provides an attack enhancement when brewed directly, and it also functions as an Alchemy Material with different stat-boosting properties when used as a secondary ingredient in complex recipes.
